40 THE NEW MINI COUNTRYMAN PLUG-IN HYBRID.
RUGGEDLY ECO-FRIENDLY. The new MINI Countryman Plug-in Hybrid combines an electric motor and battery with a conventional petrol engine to offer drivers the best of both worlds. For short trips and inner-city driving, it glides silently and emission-free up to 26 miles * on battery power. Any 230-volt power supply fully charges the battery in 150 minutes at most, using electricity harvested from completely carbon-neutral, regenerative sources. For longer journeys, motorway stretches and short sprints, the MINI Twin Power Turbo petrol engine takes over and regenerative braking charges the battery. The result is consistently better performance and fuel economy, however varied your driving habits may be. * Fuel consumption is determined in accordance with the ECE driving cycle (as defined in directive 80 1268 EEC), made up of approximately one third urban and two thirds extra-urban driving (based on the distance covered). CO 2 emissions are measured separately from fuel consumption. Figures relate to standard-specification vehicles, and may vary significantly where optional equipment (including larger tyres) is fitted. Figures for fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions may vary depending on the wheels and tyres fitted. Figures are obtained in a standardised test cycle using a combination of battery power and petrol fuel after the battery had been fully charged. They are intended for comparisons between vehicles and may not be representative of what a user achieves under usual driving conditions. The new MINI Countryman Plug-in Hybrid is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle that requires mains electricity for charging. 41
42 The Centre Instrument screen provides a clear view of the flow of energy in the hybrid system, as well as feedbacks on how to conserve energy when driving. The e-drive toggle allows you to switch between 3 driving modes to suit different driving situations: Auto edrive, Max edrive or Save Battery. The E-Instrument, which replaces the rev counter to the left of the tachometer, shows the status of the electric motor s boost function as well as battery energy recovery. The combi display includes the battery charge level and remaining charge time as well as the remaining range. Last but not least, the yellow Start button with illuminated trim is exclusive to the Plug-in Hybrid.
Sustainability has never been this stylish. The interior pictured above includes Cross Punch leather sport seats in Carbon Black, Carbon Black colour line and Piano Black illuminated interior style from the MINI Yours customisation programme. Come nightfall, the backlit cockpit decorative trim finishers add an atmospheric glow to the interior. 43
THE BALANCE OF POWER. The plug-in hybrid system automatically finds the most efficient distribution of power from the two drivetrains. A potent 136-hp/100-kW MINI Twin Power Turbo petrol engine with 6-speed Steptronic transmission powers the front wheels. The 88-hp/65-kW e-motor directs power as required or if desired to the rear axle, using electricity stored in a high-voltage battery. As a result, the car has electric, ALL4 all-wheel-drive system. Thanks to intelligent engine management, the transition between the two powertrains is hardly noticeable.

WIDE OPEN SPACES AWAIT. Short bursts of acceleration and the classic go-kart feeling the Plug-in Hybrid has everything you need to make every trip a low-emission adventure. Numerous yellow design elements make it easy to recognise, like the S in the Cooper S logos on the radiator grille and tailgate, and the E-logo on the bumper and side scuttles. The charging socket is located behind the left side scuttle. Open up the electric tailgate and you can divide up the storage space in all sorts of ways, thanks to rear-seat backrests which fold down in a 40/20/40 split. If you fancy a mid-journey break, just pull out the padded picnic bench from beneath the loading shelf.
